Varys died in the penultimate episode of Game of Thrones, which is easily one of the series’ worst deaths. “The Bells” is certainly one of the most controversial Game of Thrones episodes ever, and it’s not surprising that Daenerys’ decision to torch King’s Landing even after the city surrendered is the plot twist on everyone’s minds. However, the episode began with another major loss, as the Master of Whisperers was slaughtered for betraying his queen....

Here’s the heartwarming way Wonder Woman star Gal Gadot wished the character a Happy Birthday. To say Gal Gadot’s role as Diana Prince was her first big film role would be a lie. Before she starred in Wonder Woman, Gadot had a recurring part as Gisele Yashar in the Fast & Furious movies, appearing in three of its nine films. But it was her breakout role playing Diana Prince and her superhero alter ego Wonder Woman in the DCEU that really put her on the map....

After the events of Game of Thrones most recent episode, “The Last of the Starks”, Daenerys’ odds of taking the Iron Throne are down quite a bit, but Bronn seems to have revealed the key to defeating Cersei in the Last War. After the Battle of Winterfell, despite coming out victorious, Jon and Dany’s armies were drastically reduced, and the warriors who remained were comprised of exhausted, wounded fighters. To make matters worse, the minute Dany arrived back at Dragonstone, she fell victim to a surprise attack by Euron Greyjoy’s fleet, which succeeded in destroying her own, eliminating one of her dragons, and ultimately costing Missandei her life....

Tolmasky via Flickr The New York Times profiles Francisco Tolmasky who was hired out of college early by Apple in 2006 to work on Mobile Safari in the run up to the launch of the iPhone.

“Everything that has a beginning, has an end.” This may be a line from the tremendous Matrix Trilogy but it’s also perfectly suitable for Game of Thrones. Since we’re currently in the middle of the final season, and just experienced one of the most exhausting, intense, and relentless, battle-sequences of all time in The Long Night, it’s the perfect time to go back and look at the endings of the series’ most beloved characters....

Frasier is a sitcom about a radio show psychiatrist who spends as much time helping those around him as he does making things worse due to his tendency toward overanalysis. At first, it’s hard to believe Frasier and his brother Niles, also a psychiatrist, are the sons of former cop Martin Crane, but as the show progresses, it’s obvious they’re all peas in a neurotic pod. The characters on Frasier are equal parts lovable and annoying....

The Battle of Winterfell took place over the course of a single night, which gave the armies of the dead an advantage, as they don’t need the light to be able to see....

[youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDADCXFdj5A] The latest Angry Birds edition, Stella, hit the app store today, with pink, female characters apparently designed to appeal to girls.
